Aston Villa could have a "£50million hole in their accounts" after a crushing blow at Villa Park with big-name sale the solution

ASTON VILLA duo Tyrone Mings and John McGinn have both released statements, causing concern after Jacob Ramsey’s exit. The midfielder left Villa Park in a £39million transfer to Newcastle

Asked about another player who has received interest, Ollie Watkins, Emery responded: “Ollie Watkins is the same. With different circumstances, but the same in his commitment. He is happy here, he wants to fight for us. He is getting his own target as well, playing with the national team, scoring goals in the Premier League, playing in Europe.

Aston Villa are set to make matters worse after the contentious sale of Jacob Ramsey to Newcastle after struggling against the Magpies.

The details of an Aston Villa forward's move to a European giant have been revealed by transfer insider Fabrizio Romano

Aston Villa host Newcastle United on August 16 in their opening Premier League fixture. Transfer intrigue is dominating the build-up.

Ramsey would provide necessary depth and could well be Joelinton's successor on the left of Howe's three-man nucleus. He possesses the dynamism, attacking instinct and quality to make a similar impact if he can stay free of injury.

Aston Villa are reportedly 'accelerating' with their plan to bring back a fan favourite with an official bid, given they are 'finalising' the sale of a current star.
